After seeing how behaves on his shows I really am starting to wonder if Andy Cohen hates women. He is starting to feel like a gay misogynist to me. I mean he casts these Housewife shows with women who he mocks whenever they are not in front of him, patronizes when they are in front of him, and then exploits and really seems to emotionally victimize at times.
Before anyone says these women ask for it, with any misogynist there are always women with little to no self esteem lining up for them. He is starting to rub me the wrong way-a master manipulator of women.
Am I alone in thinking this?
"The sexual energy between the mother and son really concerns me!"-random woman behind me at Next to Normal
"I want to meet him after and bang him!"-random woman who exposed her breasts at Rock of Ages, referring to James Carpinello
But is Danielle really a woman? I mean with the amount of silicone and other chemicals in her body and the number of procedures she's had who knows what she really started life as. There are times when I'm not even entirely sure she's human.

i'm sure he treats those women that way because it's as "real" as the "real" housewives are, which is as "real" as kim's hair, which is to say not real at all. of course things really happen as they do on camera, but i don't see how anyone can have any doubt that everything the viewer sees is staged to some degree, even if it is nothing more than a producer or cameraman egging the women on. how else could each successive season of these shows somehow be more outrageous than the last, and not only that, but more outrageous than the other incarnation of the show to air?
in other words, however andy treats the women, i'm sure they're "in" on it for the same reason they're "in" on the show, no matter how much they whine on interviews: it lights up the blogosphere and jacks the ratings, even for andy's little show. after all, nene is going on celebrity apprentice, betheny frankel has her own show, etc., etc., and have entire cult followings based on how catty they are to one another. life could be worse.
He can be seriously annoying, but I look at him more as a circus ringmaster or an animal wrangler.
He gets these women all together in a pretty confined space and just lets them have at it. He encourages the sensational but the women somehow manage to provide the drama all on their own.
You know who is the biggest misogynist working in the entertainment business.
Lars Von Trier. The extent to which that man hates women is pathological. Did anyone see Antichrist?
If you didn't, don't b/c it's a terrible movie. But his whole point is (I think) that women, going back to original sin, are the devil's agents on earth here to destroy man.
And what's wrong with hiring people just so you can mock them? That's what I do...it passes the time!

Hey, I thought I was going to be a housewife too!! Damn, do I have to be the cross-dressing singer/hairdresser on this one? I bet you'd rather have Tdiva, huh?
